1 Nephi 16:18

And it came to pass that as I, Nephi, went forth to slay food,

behold, I did break my bow, which was made of fine steel;

and after I did break my bow,

behold, my brethren were angry with me because of the loss of my bow,

for we did obtain no food.



1 Nephi 17:19

And now it came to pass that I, Nephi, was exceedingly sorrowful

because of the hardness of their hearts;

and now when they saw that I began to be sorrowful

they were glad in their hearts,

insomuch that they did rejoice over me, saying:

We knew that ye could not construct a ship,

for we knew that ye were lacking in judgment;

wherefore, thou canst not accomplish so great a work.



1 Nephi 17:55

And now, they said:

We know of a surety that the Lord is with thee,

for we know that it is the power of the Lord that has shaken us.

And they fell down before me, and were about to worship me,

but I would not suffer them, saying:

I am thy brother, yea, even thy younger brother;

wherefore, worship the Lord thy God,

and honor thy father and thy mother,

that thy days may be long in the land

which the Lord thy God shall give thee.
